"When Thomas Jordan's aunt died in 2002, two generations of his paternal family tree were gone. But a visit with a cousin in Dunbar, West Virginia in 2008 forever altered his purpose in life and pushed him to find out about his father's family. Join Thomas on his journey as seemingly every day he made discoveries about his paternal family. He develops his genealogy skills and makes his first visit to the small community of Roberta, Crawford County, Georgia, the land of nativity for his paternal ancestors and family. He documents all eight of his paternal great-great-grandparents. His ability to connect dots and locate loved ones helps create the biannual Jessie Jordan reunion, comprised of relatives who are descendants of his great-great-grandfather Jessie Jordan Sr. (1817-1915). Through his ability to dissect obituaries and death notices, he makes a discovery about his connection to one of the most pivotal civil rights events in history."--Page 4 of cover

Research on fathers and fatherhood has blossomed in recent years, focusing, for the most part, on present-day fathering experiences but also beginning to uncover hidden narratives of past fatherhood. This collection aims to add something new to this expanding field by exploring the dynamic relationship between present and past fatherhoods. The popular understanding of fathers in past generations, as being detached and uninvolved in the lives of their children, can be said to play a significant part in the construction of modern fathering identities, with ideas of “new” fatherhood being played off against notions of historical fathering practices. However, research has begun to show that these popular myths often misremember the past, judging it by current standards and obscuring the diverse nature of fathering practices in the recent and distant past. A genealogical approach is able to critically examine these intergenerational constructions of fatherhood and more positively illuminate the ways in which experiences of fathering and being fathered are passed on between generations. The contributions to this collection use a genealogical approach (broadly defined) to fathering and fatherhood as a way of defamiliarizing accepted narratives and suggesting new ways of thinking about men and their relationships with their children.
